There is no cost or
obligation to open a Great Lakes Scrip Center account. We just need some basic
information about your non-profit organization and how you will be paying for
your orders. We will also need proof of your non-profit status to complete the
process.
Here’s what to do:
Step 1
Complete our online enrollment form and print a copy.
Step 2
Make a copy of your proof of non-profit status
Proof of non-profit status can be (in order of preference):
A copy of the IRS notice acknowledging you as a 501(c)3 organization
or
A letter of determination, from your state, recognizing you as a non-profit organization.We do not accept tax exempt letters and EIN letters as proof of non-profit status unless it expressly states your non-profit status.
or
An opinion from an attorney or CPA stating your status as a non-profit.
or
If you do not have any of these, please provide a statement, on your organization’s letterhead,indicating the purpose of your fundraising activities so we can verify your non-profit status.
Step 3
ACH electronic payment is the fastest and safest way to receive scrip orders. If you would like to set up ACH payment, make a copy of a voided or cancelled organization (not personal) check. Checks should have the organization name printed on it. If that isn’t possible, please provide a letter from your bank or credit union on their letterhead that includes your organization’s name, the bank routing number and the account number. If you choose ACH payment the enrollment form must be signed by whoever is authorizing ACH payments.
Step 4
Fax, scan and email, or mail all of the information requested above to Great Lakes Scrip Center, per the instructions on the form. Upon receiving all the required information, we will notify you within 2 business days that your account is open.
